Well with 33k songs and a NSLU… 8-(
The Problem is the SoundBridge has a timeout. So if the NSLU delivers it too slowly then that is it. There are some tricks already posted in the forums like using sqlite3 over sqlite and manually adding indexes to the sqlite3 database. Search the forums, but I doubt it will suffice for that amount of songs.
The only solution is splitting the database or use something with more power than a NSLU.
And does the 44k songs really load ok on the soundbridge when a Mac or PC serves it? I mean maybe the browse still works, but I doubt you can do a “play all”. At least from what both the Roku guys say and what other people have observed that should exhaust the memory of the Soundbridge so 44k is kinda limited anyway…
